  i'm not gonna be surprised if SBST/SMRT decides to being out their OC500LE/Citaros on New Year's day.but i'm sure there'll be jams to whatever interchange it happens at,if it happens.Just a speculation though.

  They are not even registered. Demos don't come out on service straight after registration.

  Road test, perhaps. But not revenue service.

  Hi.. I went to Pandan Gardens C&C but not granted entry by the security guards. May I know how is entry gained to take a peek at the Citaro?

  Yeah, i went past C & C quite alot of times with my fren, and both the buses werent there too. Maybe they're going to their respective depots for ez-link card placement and other stuff? Btw, the Citaro already had the 'Give Way to Buses' sticker at the back of the bus the last time i saw it.

  Maybe we can start guessing which service would it start on since it seems that it'll be starting it revenue soon.
